A man has been charged with being concerned in the supply of heroin and crack cocaine.
Sharmache Jama of Melford Road, Dulwich was arrested in East Ham on Tuesday around 5.45am.
Video footage captures the moment Kent Police and Metropolitan Police officers entered the property.
Jama, 28, was not present in the address when Kent and Metropolitan police officers entered but was arrested moments later after a suspicious car seen close-by was stopped.
Mobile phones and quantities of cash were recovered from the vehicle.
He was remanded in custody to appear before Medway Magistrates' Court today.
Superintendent Mike Worrall, of Kent Police, said: "This search warrant was linked to the suspected operation of a county line to supply Class A drugs to some of the most vulnerable people in parts of east Kent."
He added: "The arrest is a direct consequence of the latest close partnership work and collaboration between Kent Police and other forces, including the Metropolitan Police.
"County lines drug supply causes misery for communities and it is absolutely right that we continue to put significant resources into identifying and arresting those we suspect to be involved."
